A Fantastic Day at Southport Yesterday with 50 New Coots being Colour Ringed with 3 retraps.

Also we were placing Grain in the Shallows for Tufted Duck to eat and it proved a big Success with 25 being Caught 2 of them Controls.

Peter and Thomas Fearon turned up which made processing the birds much quicker. We normally take full biometrics on the Coots but with it being quite cold at the moment - we only took wing measurements.

Kane and his group have Colour Ringed over 260 Coots this winter, Great Project.
